Abstract
A transform structure employing surface wave devices performs Fourier transform operations on a time-limited substantially band limited signal. The output signal of the transform structure is related to the Fourier transform of the input signal in a manner which permits forming the product of this output with a similar output of a second transform structure. This product is inverted by a third transform structure so as to provide the convolution of the two original input functions. The overall structure comprises a filter apparatus readily programable in either the time or frequency domain.
